Chapter 5 Lab 5-2– DHCP

Topology.

Objectives
 Configure DHCP for IPv4
 Configure Stateless DHCP for IPv6
 Configure Stateful DHCP for IPv6

Background
To practice the various configuration and options associated with DHCP for IPv4 and IPv6, you will configure
a DHCP server on switch DLS1. Hosts A and B will receive IP addresses from DLS1 and validate continued
connectivity.

Note: This lab uses Cisco Catalyst 3560 and 2960 switches running Cisco IOS 15.0(2)SE6 IP Services and
LAN Base images, respectively. The 3560 and 2960 switches are configured with the SDM templates “dual-
ipv4-and-ipv6 routing” and “lanbase-routing”, respectively. Depending on the switch model and Cisco IOS
Software version, the commands available and output produced might vary from what is shown in this lab.
Catalyst 3650 switches (running any Cisco IOS XE release) and Catalyst 2960-Plus switches (running any
comparable Cisco IOS image) can be used in place of the Catalyst 3560 switches and the Catalyst 2960
switches.

Required Resources
 2 Cisco 2960 with the Cisco IOS Release 15.0(2)SE6 C2960-LANBASEK9-M or comparable
 2 Cisco 3560v2 with the Cisco IOS Release 15.0(2)SE6 C3560-IPSERVICESK9-M or comparable
 Computer with terminal emulation software
 Ethernet and console cables
 3 Windows 7 PCs with appropriate software

Step 1: Verify SDM template (dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 routing / lanbase-routing)

This lab starts with the switches being configured from the previous lab (5-1, Inter-VLAN Routing). To support
IPv6, the correct SDM template must be in use on your switches (the 3560 will use dual-ipv4-and-ipv6
routing while the 2960 will use lanbase-routing). Verify this is the case on all four switches. If you must
change the SDM template, do so (use the configuration command sdm prefer dual-ipv4-and-ipv6
routing on the 3560s and sdm prefer lanbase-routing on the 2960s) and then save the switch
configuration and reload the switch to have the new SDM template take effect.

Step 2: Configure IPv4 DHCP server on DLS1 for VLAN 99 and 120
Configure a DHCP server for IPv4 on DLS1 using the following parameters:
 For VLAN 99:
- Exclude addresses 10.1.99.1 through 10.1.99.2 and 10.1.99.100 through 10.1.99.104
- Set the default router to 10.1.99.1
- Set the DNS server to 10.1.99.100
 For VLAN 120:
- Exclude addresses 10.1.120.1 through 10.1.120.2 and 10.1.120.100 through 10.1.120.104
- Set the default router to 10.1.120.1
- Set the DNS server to 10.1.99.100
 Configure Interface F0/6 as an access port in VLAN 99 and issue the no shut command

VLAN 120 pool configuration:

Step 3: Configure IPv6 support on all switches

Configure IPv6 support addresses on all switches using the following addresses:
 Enable IPv6 unicast-routing on DLS1 and DLS2
 Configure IPv6 addressing as shown in the table:
Link-Local
Device Interface Address Global Unicast Address
DLS1 VLAN99 Fe80::d1 2001:db8:3115:99::d1/64

DLS2 VLAN110 Fe80::d2 2001:db8:3115:110::d2/64

DLS2 VLAN120 Fe80::d2 2001:db8:3115:120::d2/64

Step 4: Configure IPv6 Routing at DLS1 and DLS2

At DLS1 and DLS2, create an IPv6 default route that points to the other switch. Example from DLS1:

Step 5: Configure a STATELESS DHCP server for IPv6 on DLS1 using the following
parameters:

 Build a pool named MANAGEMENT_IPV6_DHCP

 Set the DNS server to 2001:db8:3115:99::100
 Associate the IPv6 pool with interface vlan 99 on DLS1
 Set the Other configuration flag on interface vlan 99 on DLS1

CCNPv7.1 SWITCH: Lab 5-2 – DHCP

Step 6: Configure DHCP Relay on DLS2 for the VLAN 120 network
Redirect IPv4 and IPv6 DHCP requests to DLS1 at 10.1.99.1 and 2001:db8:3115:99::d1 respectively

Step 7: Configure switches for remote access

On each switch, create an enable secret password and configure the vty lines to allow remote access from
other network devices.
DLS1 example:

CCNPv7.1 SWITCH: Lab 5-2 – DHCP

Note: The passwords configured here are required for NETLAB compatibility only and are NOT
recommended for use in a live environment

Step 8: Configure hosts for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses

Hosts should be attached to interface F0/6 on DLS2, ALS1 and ALS2.
 On ALS1, change interface F0/6 from an access port in VLAN 100 to an access port in VLAN 99.

 On ALS2, configure interface F0/6 as an access port in VLAN 120

 On DLS2, verify F0/6 is configured as an access port in VLAN 110.

First, verify that Host D (connected to DLS2 F0/6) receives an IP address from the VLAN 110 pool.
For the rest of this step, you will work with Host A connected to ALS1.
Once the interface on ALS1 is associated with proper VLAN, use the commands appropriate to the PC
operating system to obtain IPv4 and IPv6 addressing.

CCNPv7.1 SWITCH: Lab 5-2 – DHCP

For a computer with Windows 7 installed (must be machine administrator): At the command prompt, issue the
command ipconfig /renew to get an IPv4 address and ipconfig /renew6 to get an IPv6 address.

In the ipconfig output above, notice that there are two IPv6 addresses. The first address listed,
2001:db8:3115:99:a940:91fe:38dd:da0c is a permanent address while the second address listed,
2001:db8:3115:99:75b4:31b7:6c26:50ad, is a temporary address.
Also notice that the interface portion of the permanent address is the same as the interface portion of the link-
local address.
The temporary address is generated automatically because privacy extensions are enabled.
The permanent address will be used in DNS registration and when this host is providing a service, while the
temporary address will be used when this host is serving in the client role and requesting services from
another host, with the idea that this helps provide some privacy to the host.
The temporary address is valid for one day then a new temporary address is generated and then the old
temporary address goes into a "deprecated" mode for seven days. The "active" temporary address may also
be referred to as "preferred".
The second thing to note is from the output of the route print -6 command:

© 2015 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. This document is Cisco Public. Page 10 of 25
CCNPv7.1 SWITCH: Lab 5-2 – DHCP

The default route, expressed as ::/0, points to the link-local address of the default gateway; there is also a
route to the local IPv6 network 2001:db8:3115:99::/64 noted as "on link".

Step 9: Test connectivity using IPv4 and IPv6 addresses

From Host A, attempt to ping and telnet to DLS2 using both IPv4 (10.1.110.1) and IPv6 addresses
(2001:db8:3115:110::d2). All attempts should succeed.

CCNPv7.1 SWITCH: Lab 5-2 – DHCP

Step 10: Configure Stateful DHCP for IPv6

In this step, you will configure stateful DHCP for VLAN 120. In this scenario, DLS1 will be providing DHCP
services for VLAN 120 even though it does not have an interface on VLAN 120. The DHCP Helper
configuration from step 6 will allow DHCP traffic from HOST B to reach the DHCP server. However, some
additional configuration is necessary on DLS2 to ensure everything works as expected.
In most cases when an external DHCP server is used, the device sourcing router advertisement (DLS2 in this
instance) simply has to have the "M" flag enabled on the interface receiving the DHCP Solicit messages.
The M flag being received in the RA will cause the host to ask for a DHCP address. However, it will also
configure a SLAAC address using the prefix information in the RA. This is due to the fact that the autoconfig
flag is on by default. The “A” flag tells the host to use the RA to build an address for the interface. We will
illustrate this with a very different DHCP prefix and a couple of packet captures and debug outputs in a few
moments.

 Configure DLS1 with an IPv6 DHCP pool named VLAN120-IPV6-POOL

 Set the address prefix to 3333:120::/64
 Set the DNS server to 2001:db8:3115:99::100
 Set the domain name to switch.ccnp
 Apply this DHCP configuration to interface Port-Channel 2

DLS1(config)# ipv6 dhcp pool VLAN120-IPV6-POOL

DLS1(config-dhcpv6)# address prefix 3333:120::/64

© 2015 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. This document is Cisco Public. Page 12 of 25
CCNPv7.1 SWITCH: Lab 5-2 – DHCP

DLS1(config-dhcpv6)# dns-server 2001:db8:3115:99::100

DLS1(config-dhcpv6)# domain-name switch.ccnp
DLS1(config-dhcpv6)# exit
DLS1(config)# interface port-channel 2
DLS1(config-if)# ipv6 dhcp server VLAN120-IPV6-POOL

 Set the managed configuration flag on interface vlan 120 on DLS2

DLS2(config)# int vlan 120
DLS2(config-if)# ipv6 nd managed-config-flag
DLS2(config-if)# exit

Step 11: Configure the hosts for IPv6 addresses

Use the previously provided instructions on Host B to obtain an IPv6 address. If you do NOT receive an
address with the 3333:120::/64 prefix, make sure DHCP relay is working. You can use debug ipv6 dhcp
relay on DLS2 and debug ipv6 dhcp on DLS1.

CCNPv7.1 SWITCH: Lab 5-2 – DHCP

Notice the IPv6 addresses. This machine has two addresses with the 2001:db8:3115:120::/64 prefix, and only
one from the 3333:120::/64 prefix. What happened?
The results here are a result of the autoconfig flag being set in the router advertisements sent by DLS2. The
“A” flag being on tells the host to use the RA to create an address, even if the “M” flag is on. To see the “A”
flag, you could use Wireshark on the host or simply debug ipv6 nd on DLS2:

*Mar 1 05:11:45.135: ICMPv6-ND: Request to send RA for FE80::D2

*Mar 1 05:11:45.135: ICMPv6-ND: Setup RA from FE80::D2 to FF02::1 on Vlan120
*Mar 1 05:11:45.135: ICMPv6-ND: Setup RA common:Managed address configuration
*Mar 1 05:11:45.135: ICMPv6-ND: MTU = 1500
*Mar 1 05:11:45.135: ICMPv6-ND: prefix = 2001:DB8:3115:120::/64 onlink autoconfig
*Mar 1 05:11:45.135: ICMPv6-ND: 2592000/604800 (valid/preferred)

We used different numbers on the DLS2 VLAN120 interface and the DHCP scope to illustrate the impact of
the autoconfig flag.
To make DLS2 remove the autoconfig flag from the RA, add the ipv6 nd prefix xx::/yy no-autoconfig
interface configuration command (xx::/yy is the prefix assigned to int VLAN 120).
Please note that as of this writing, the no-autoconfig parameter is hidden, so it will not appear in help or tab-
completion.

DLS2(config)#int vlan 120

DLS2(config-if)#ipv6 nd prefix 2001:db8:3115:120::/64 no-autoconfig
DLS2(config-if)#end
*Mar 1 06:19:21.891: ICMPv6-ND: Setup RA common:Managed address configuration
*Mar 1 06:19:21.891: ICMPv6-ND: MTU = 1500
*Mar 1 06:19:21.891: ICMPv6-ND: prefix = 2001:DB8:3115:120::/64 onlink
*Mar 1 06:19:21.891: ICMPv6-ND: 2592000/604800 (valid/preferred)

Note: Due to the way the values are stored, your Windows 7 host may not release the originally configured
addresses in the 2001::db8:3115:120::/64 network.

CCNPv7.1 SWITCH: Lab 5-2 – DHCP

Now, reconfigure the DHCP pool at DLS1 to use the correct prefix for VLAN 120 (2001:db8:3115:120::/64),
disable and re-enable the adapter on HOST B, and the host should receive a single IPv6 address. Due to the
fact that this is the same prefix, and the way Windows generates the random interface ID, this will most likely
be the same address.
DLS1(config)# no ipv6 dhcp pool VLAN120-IPV6-POOL
DLS1(config)# ipv6 dhcp pool VLAN120-IPV6-POOL
DLS1(config-dhcpv6)# address prefix 2001:db8:3115:120::/64
DLS1(config-dhcpv6)# dns-server 2001:db8:3115:99::100
DLS1(config-dhcpv6)# domain-name switch.ccnp
DLS1(config-dhcpv6)# interface po2
DLS1(config-if)# ipv6 dhcp server VLAN120-IPV6-POOL

Step 12: Test connectivity

As you did in step 9, test connectivity between the hosts using PING and TELNET.

CONCLUSIONES

En este trabajo dirigido se realizo la configuracion de DHCP en IPV4, lo que me permitió conocer, aprender y
aplicar este protocolo de red que facilita la administración de direccionamiento IPv4. Este proceso es importante
pues aun se utilizan este direccionamiento en equipos actuales, por lo tanto me facilita la administración de
muchos equipos que puedan ser configurados de manera dinámica, así mismo aprendí que en un Switch capa 3
puedo configurar diferentes Pool DHCP acorde a su numero de VLAN.

Para el direccionamiento IPv6 se incorporan dos tecnologías de DHCP que nos permite realizar el asignamiento
de IPs, los laboratorios me ayudaron a comprender y aplicar la configuracion:

En la configuracion Stateless DHCP IPv6 encontre que no se requieren muchas configuraciones, por lo tanto es
un método que me permite realizar integración de nuevos dispositivos IPv6, iot, o computadores personales.

Respecto a la configuracion Stateful DHCP IPv6 se asemeja mas a a la configuración de IPv4 DHCP, donde se
deben determinar todos los parámetros para la configuracion DHCP, esto significa que tenemos un control mayor
de las configuraciones.

Finalmente con estas opciones de configuracion DHCP podemos realizar configuraciones de direccionamiento
dinamico con el fin de poner en fnuncionamiento una red de computadores y que la administración de las
direcciones IPs no sea un problema.
